A young man was hospitalized and another was arrested after a violent confrontation at a Northport apartment complex Wednesday night.

The victim, 18, suffered at least two gunshot wounds to his thighs, said Tuscaloosa County Metro Homicide Unit commander Sgt. Dale Phillips. The injuries were not life-threatening, as of Thursday morning, he said.

The victim told investigators that he was walking through Northgate Apartments when he was approached by Antwan Marshall, 18, and a 17-year-old male, Phillips said.

They confronted him about remarks they heard he had been making, he said.

The victim told investigators that he and Marshall struggled with a gun Marshall pulled from his waistband.

Witnesses reported seeing Marshall fire the gun, but said that the 17-year-old didn’t appear to be armed.

Both suspects were questioned before Marshall was charged with second-degree assault. He remained in the Tuscaloosa County Jail Thursday morning with bond set at $15,000.
